Dear friends, it's the end of 2022! Let's celebrate with not one, but TWO amazing Spidey games []-D
Before we begin though, let me state clearly that I'm deeply sorry for the raw state in which you're going to find the mod. Due to all the time I had to spend on AER v2, and to some health issues I experienced recently, there will be several...

This month we have all kinds of spiders spinning their virtual webs around here: giant killer spiders, friendly neighborhood spiders, ...
Fearless friend Beardo Benjo has ventured where nobody has ever gone before, and recorded footage of the latest beta version of the R.E.A.L. VR framework supporting Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered. Take a...

Hey community, 'tis the time to be jolly! Despite the giant spiders that seem hell bent on feeding upon us!
I had to take a few days off for Christmas, otherwise my family would disown me.

The launch of AER v2 has been a bit rough. I mean, I knew that a major release like that would not be painless. But I'm aware that there a...

Update 5: Release 9.0.3 delivers some extra goods!
If you're here, reading this, it's likely that you already know how grandiose it is to play your favorite games in VR. Just to be there, inside the virtual world. To be able to crane your neck and peek behind a corner. Friend or foe? See and admire details that would never even register with your brain if you were playing on a flat screen.
Hey fellas! I have been silent for a while, but in the upcoming days I'm going to positively flood your inbox with posts, to the point that you will probably think "man, I wish he would just shut up already".
Well, if my health permits. I have come down with something that feels suspiciously like COVID. These days it's become really hard t...
2022-12-15 11:16:22 +0000 UTC View PostHey dear friends,
it's been a while since my latest post, so I wanted to give you a status update and let you know where we are in terms of advancement on the various fronts (wow, that almost sounded like we're at war).
As you'll remember from my teaser of a month ago, 2022-11-30 15:58:07 +0000 UTC View Post
So many game updates these days, it's becoming hard to keep track of them ;-)
As was promised a few months ago, FromSoftware and Bandai Namco (to neither of which I have any affiliation) have reactivated the servers for Dark Souls: Remastered.
That means that it's now possible to play DS:R online/multiplayer. However, the official up...

Today Cyberpunk 2077 was updated to game version 1.61, and that broke my VR mod. Release 8.3.0 fixes the issues introduced by the patch and allows you to play again!
I also added a small option, as requested by some of you, in case you wish to prevent the game HUD from ever becoming headlocked. It's imaginatively called "Allow HUD headlock...

Hey friends, I'm sorry if lately things have been a bit quiet here on the release front ;-)
As you know, I've been working on a few new titles. One of them, which might or might not have swinging from skyscrapers as its awesome map traversal mechanic, gave me the insane urge to return to the drawing table and see whether Alternate Eye Rend...

Not sure why I'm speaking LOLcats today, and in a public post to boot O_o
Anyway, Cyberpunk 2077 has attracted lots of players after the 1.6 Edgerunners update, and many of you have been asking for advice on how to make the game perform better in VR. Let me begin by stating that the problem is your typical triangle of constraints. Cheap ha...
2022-10-14 14:17:23 +0000 UTC View PostThis is an emergency release to work around an issue that is ruining the mod experience in VR for many of you.
There seems to be a bug in recent NVIDIA drivers that severely limits the performance of windowed applications. The driver is erroneously forcing V-Sync on, even if the application explicitly asked for an uncapped frame rate. That...

This is a maintenance release with a small (but crucial) fix for an issue that could prevent my latest mods from entering VR, especially on systems with an AMD GPU. Potentially affected games are Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade, Ghostwire: Tokyo, Ghostrunner: Complete Edition, and Stray.
I already tried and failed twice to exterminate ...

For the first time, the new release attached below (8.0.0) supports two additional games! The idea for one of them was put in my mind by Brian Tate of Flat2VR. A few weeks ago, when I mentioned to him that I was going to mod Ghostwi...
2022-09-20 20:11:29 +0000 UTC View PostSep 18: Thanks for all the feedback, folks! It looks like this new release is working well, phew. Just a quick heads-up, courtesy of Patron Tomo: if you have been holding back on Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade because of its price, know that it's on sale at 30% off until Sep 2...

7.2.0 update: Release 7.2.0, attached at the bottom of this post, fixes all VR-related problems introduced by the Edgerunners Update (1.6) that came out yesterday for Cyberpunk 2077. It also solves a regression in my VR conversion for Horizon: Zero Dawn that was making the crosshair appear very close to your eyes, i...
2022-09-05 10:22:54 +0000 UTC View PostThe new conversion will have you looking up at the sky, so high your neck will creak! You'll be petting thoughtful animals! Walking in mysterious ways! And learning all manners of stuff about [redacted] food! And... sorry, that's already too many hints :-)
OK, one more hint: it's not Spidey (yet).
If I say so myself, I'm qui...

It's time to play this game on another level!
Since release 6.1.0, the mod extends support for my Quick Menu to Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade.
You can bring the Quick Menu up at all times during gameplay by pressing both thumbsticks on the gamepad or Pause on the keyboard. Note for returning users: there...

I just learned about this: 2022-08-11 20:29:51 +0000 UTC View Post
Incredible news, guys! This week Ian Higton exceptionally moved forward his VR corner from the usual Sunday schedule to mid-week, for an episode entirely devoted to our latest VR conversion for FF7R!
This is so exciting []-D
I'm also very happy because many of you have been asking to see video footage of the game, and due to my tinke...
2022-08-11 11:43:42 +0000 UTC View PostAnd what a mouthful of a name that is []-D
Amazingly, after all the requests I got for it in the past few months, none of you guessed the title! You guys didn't really believe I could pull it off, huh?
Many people thought of Spider-Man Remastered, and trust me, I'm thinking of it too :-) But my time machine has been acting out again,...
2022-08-10 13:26:45 +0000 UTC View PostAs you know, when I'm mostly silent for a few days it's because I've been crunching hard to put out a new release :-)
Version 6 of the mod is coming soon! In one or two days, unless a showstopper bug is found during final testing—but I don't really expect that to happen, because it's been working reliably on my system for some time now.<...

This release brings several improvements to the Dark Souls: Remastered VR conversion. If you are a new Patron (welcome!) or haven't tried my DS:R mod yet, please read the original post for the game first.
Hey guys, it's that time of the month again! Hold on tight to your headsets, because the performance of this game is going to blow you away []-D
